The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has denied a request from death row inmate
Batholomew Granger, who has asked for a new trial. Granger was convicted of capital
murder for a shooting that occurred outside the Jefferson County Courthouse in 2012.
Bartholomew was targeting his ex-wife, who was going to testify against him in an upcoming
trial. The shooting claimed the life of 79-year old Minnie Sebolt, who was a bystander outside
the Jefferson County Courthouse
